My Wife is a Big Star Chapter 34 : Losing to Chen Ran Is Not a Disgrace

Chapter 34 - Losing to Chen Ran Is Not a Disgrace

“Lin Fan?”

Chen Ran was slightly stunned upon hearing the na.

Aside from competing for the position of Chief Planner for the new program, the two of them had no intersection whatsoever, and Chen Ran had never even seen him before.

Now that he had co to the Entertainnt Channel, he could finally be considered to have t this competitor.

Lin Fan had specifically co over to introduce himself; what was he trying to do?

The people nearby also looked over curiously; after all, with such a great opportunity having been snatched away, he might very well be flies into a rage out of sha.

At least if it were them, not to ntion resentnt, they would absolutely not be in the mood to engage in so self-introduction with soone they had a rift with.

However, to their surprise, after Lin Fan finished his introduction, he gave a thumbs-up and said,

“I’ve read your proposal; I am convinced of my defeat!”

Chen Ran didn’t understand his aning either; coming over like this, was it just to admit defeat?

Not just Chen Ran, the others didn’t understand either.

Everyone had seen Lin Fan's expression yesterday; it had basically been dark the whole ti, and his mood was extrely poor.

How did it change so completely today?

Chen Ran ca back to his senses and smiled, “I also have many shortcomings. You are a senior; please give more guidance in the future.”

Seeing Chen Ran's attitude, Lin Fan sohow felt much better in his heart. He smiled bitterly,

“What senior? I’m just a bit older, without a shred of skill. I’m also in the new program's production crew, so I’m essentially working under you; it’s I who should ask for your guidance.”

Chen Ran really didn’t know that Lin Fan would also be in the new production crew.

Thinking about it carefully, it wasn't surprising; since he had competed for the Chief Planner spot, it ant his current work wasn't busy, so if there was a new program, he could naturally follow along.

Lin Fan and Chen Ran stood there talking, essentially exchanging a few complints.

The others watched strangely; they originally thought Lin Fan was coming over to be passive-aggressive, but the man's attitude and tone were perfectly normal.

This was a bit hard to understand; had he really let it go?

By the ti Lin Fan left, Chen Ran still hadn't figured out his true intentions.

Was he sincerely coming over to build a good relationship, or was he playing mind gas?

Either way, it didn't matter to him; in the end, ability speaks, and making the program well is better than anything else.

Lin Fan left, also breathing a sigh of relief in his heart.

Last night, his father Lin Jun had a long talk with him, mostly regarding his failure in this competition.

His mood had indeed been very gloomy; having so many advantages and still losing so completely, didn't it prove that despite doing so much these past years, he was just a waste after all?

He had even entertained the thought of whether he should change careers.

Lin Jun knew his thoughts and consoled him for a long ti.

“You only see that you lost, but you don't think about how you lost. How many program proposals like Chen Ran's—ones that can be directly used for project initiation—have you seen until now?”

Lin Jun's aning was that he couldn't have written this proposal either, let alone his son—even if limited to a single person, even Yang Qijun couldn't have written such a ticulous and complete proposal.

A single person's thoughts easily encounter limitations; proposing a creative idea is fine, but when perfecting it, what one person produces isn't usually so perfect and often goes awry, requiring everyone's consultation.

It was too rare for one person like Chen Ran to write sothing so complete.

Finally, Lin Jun called Yang Qijun to ask for a copy of the proposal docunt for Lin Fan to read.

It wasn't until he saw the proposal docunt that Lin Fan's state of mind truly changed.

It wasn't that he was too bad, but that Chen Ran had written it too well!

He completely could not believe that Chen Ran was only twenty-three years old.

Just as Lin Jun said, it wasn't a contest on the sa level.

Because he read the proposal, the frustration in his heart smoothed out.

Losing to such a proposal was not a disgrace at all!

Lin Fan was even very curious about exactly how Chen Ran had written such a proposal; that was why there was the scene today of him proactively going up to greet him—he wasn't being competitive, he was truly curious.

During the morning eting, Director Liu Xianlong had Chen Ran introduce himself.

The people below applauded in welco.

Since the proposal for the new program had been settled on Chen Ran, everyone in the program departnt knew about it, so they weren't surprised at all.

Although many were amazed by Chen Ran's good looks and youth, the higher-ups had already affird his ability, so they had nothing to say.

The program had been used directly for project initiation and had already been submitted for review. Others wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing, yet Chen Ran had achieved it; naturally, no one opposed him serving as Chief Planner.

With this, Chen Ran officially transferred to the Entertainnt Channel and settled in here.

……

Over these past two days, the production crew had already assembled the core creative team. The Chief Director, Wu Jin, was a middle-aged man with a center part and thick, graying stubble; he looked rather artistic.

The mbers of the production crew gathered together. Chief Director Wu Jin clapped his hands to bring everyone in and then said,

“Everyone, co over and welco our Chief Planner, Chen Ran!”

Chen Ran smiled and said, “Hello everyone, I’m Chen Ran. Starting today, I will be serving as the Chief Planner for the production crew. I hope we can work hard together to create a great program.”

It was all just standard, routine remarks.

The program approval would still take a day or two, but they could already begin preparations.

Because they had to replace the current program, the new one needed to be produced as quickly as possible, given the circumstances.

On the very afternoon Chen Ran joined, he dove straight into work.

There was quite a lot of preliminary work to prepare for the program, so Chen Ran discussed the contents of the proposal with the crew.

He was the Chief Planner of the program; although Wu Jin was the Director, there were still many aspects of the show he didn't quite understand.

Everyone in the production crew was familiar with the proposal docunt; before Chen Ran arrived, they had read it countless tis.

Now that Chen Ran, the Chief Planner, was here, everyone’s spirits were high as they discussed the specific details together.

‘Fortunately, I prepared last night.’

Chen Ran muttered to himself inwardly.

This wasn't his first ti facing this kind of setup, after all, he had been the Chief Planner for Zhaonan Focus as well.

However, that program didn't have nearly as many details; they only needed to grasp the general direction.

Everyone had quite a few questions. If Chen Ran hadn't prepared last night, he likely would have drawn a blank or gotten stuck while speaking today, and that would have been embarrassing.

I Love Rembering Lyrics was a variety show that involved things like KTV; according to Chen Ran’s proposal, they also needed to hold preliminary selections for lead singers.

Making a program isn't done by guessing; every step must be discussed clearly.

The team was divided into several groups to prepare simultaneously. Only with a clear analysis could each departnt know their specific tasks.

“Director Wu, the segnt for selecting lead singers can be prepared now. You can have soone contact a few high-traffic singing apps to allow ti to select singers with the right conditions.”

Finally, Chen Ran singled out one point to emphasize.

The lead singers were a vital part of I Love Rembering Lyrics; picking a few good lead singers could add a lot of color to the show.

Since Chen Ran brought it up specifically, Director Wu Jin naturally took it seriously.

“I’ll have soone reach out after the eting. I’ll find so professional musicians to help with the selection to strive for the best results.”

On his first day at the Entertainnt Channel, Chen Ran didn't have much of an adjustnt period and dove right into the work.

It was a bit busy, but the feeling was quite fulfilling.

He didn't experience any workplace ostracization; on the contrary, there was a bit of excessive enthusiasm.

The people in the Entertainnt Channel were relatively younger than those in the Public Channel, and the atmosphere was more active.

By the ti he finished work, Chen Ran felt that it wasn't bad at all.
